have max in the Quedlaun-rau fight Miryria in her VF-1 (and a FPA appearing in with 'rick/Khyron's' male unit should raise some eyebrows on both sides), fake a loss so Max can get inserted into the SDF-1 as a spy along with whoever gets picked to be the three spies this time around (make it the bridge bunnies!), with all four having the unofficial mission of figuring out who is awake on the SDF-1 side this time around. perhaps have Max go through the motions of the 'take down the ace pilot' routine in an attempt to wake Miriya up.. the wedding would be a wonderful time to look for people acting oddly, as you'd expect a bunch of zentreadi-turned-humans to be..

No, wait, I think I suggested a Zentraedi-Hybrid clone of Misato might be active in one of the regions of Baseline NGEarth.

Revy as a Misato-Zentraedi DNA hybrid clone should scare you even more. Her tolerance for alcohol....yoy...

That's in an alternate re-cast universe.
The original xover was that while Misato was in a UEsG hospital in a coma, somebody, probably illegally, used some of her DNA to create a clone, likely as a weapon to use against the UEsG(assuming it was Neo-SEELE who created Revy)...only the clone turned out to be as uncontrollable as the original. By the time anybody in the UEsG notices Revy, SEELE and Neo-SEELE are already pretty much gone.
But for re-cast Revy? If you don't mind a blond, Rook Bartley as the 'wild girl'("Now wait a minute, there's no way I'm showing that much fan service!"). Alternative: Naomi Armitage, since she's already got the hot pants and gun-love.
Dutch? Hmmm...first-thought pick? Vince Grant. Second pick after consideration: Dolza, mainly because it gives the guy more screen time and forces him to actually do something other than stand around and look imperious.
Chang? I'm gonna go the way of mind gorkery and choose Char Aznable, because the thought of an easy-going Char kinda blows the mind. Don't want to cast away from asians? Fine; a less-idiotic Soun Tendo or Master Asia.

Updated my picks, just so you know.
My SCARY choice for Chang would be Battle Angel Alita(the manga)'s Zekk; 'the strongest fist in the universe'. Problem is, he'd be TOO cool and easy going because he could essentially slaughter everybody else barehanded if he went evil.

Vince Grant is a great pick for Dutch and so is Armitage, but I would put Alita as Revy.
I see Nene Romanov from Bubblegum crisiss 2032 as Benny or Maya from Eva. My pick for Balilakia has been updated I think Sylia Stingray would be a good choice.We still need a Eda and others.

Female lead in the anime Black Lagoon.

The fanservice is deadly; while you're eying her tatas, she's unloading her OTHER pair of guns into you...

NCIS and Robotech. NOw this could work. Because being a military show combined with crime drama. I sure Gibbs could hit Tony for some amusing comment. And then Ziva would make Tony jealous by flirting with Roy or Rick. And just seeing Abby is almost worth the crossover by itself.

I take it you've seen it?
UEsG could do a cakewalk, but it would be boringly routine for people who regularly destabilize Evangelion worldlines. Hand the place over to the Invid. Or re-route a Zentraedi fleet through the area(delay the SDF-1's arrival a hundred of so years or just have a universe where the Zentraedi and the DoZ successfully revolted against the Masters). Mind you, the Zentraedi don't necessarily have to be GOOD Guys, they could just be stopping by to retank on biomass, do a survey, or are just looking for new territory to expand into. And for some reason they get torqued at the Capitol and do a stomp-through, throwing the whole system down in ruins.
From what I recall, the Capital has/had limited antigravity technology(a few systems, mainly seen in the arena), in the past had bio-engineering, and supposedly had nukes...but nowhere near the resources or manpower to fend off even a small Robotech-style alien invasion...
